All other things being equal (because they truly are), would you rather have a stone that is 1.25 F/VVS2 or 1.33 G/VS2. The 1.33 is $400 cheaper. Essentially, what I'm asking is whether it's worth paying a premium for F over G and for VVS over VS?

Date: 1/8/2007 11:18:45 PM 1.33 G VS2, you won't see the difference in color, and it's cheaper.

If it's a well-cut round brilliant...I would go even farther and get the 1.5 I/SI, but if it's a fancy shape I would go with a G/H SI combo. I really don't see the purpose of paying for higher clarity that is not eye-visible.

I'd probably go with the G/VS2. If it's cheaper AND bigger, and still very high quality, it sounds like the better value to me. What's the polish/symm?
